    I'd guess at animated GIF but I've personally never used one before.

    i've had this problem before but on another forum. It was either because the file or the resolution was too big

    filesize?

    i think there is an auto resize script on the boards which discards other frames if your not within the if criteria.

    also stop uploading dat cp.

    Try uploading it again as there might have been a problem with one of the secondary usergroups which I think I have solved.

    Size restrictions are 85x85 at 20KB

    GIF is correct.
    How are you saving (stealing?) the file from DA?
